For the Love of the Devil

Ouch!
Ooof!
*Thump*

She should know better. Walking around, even half asleep in her slippers was not usually a problem, but when she had jumped wholeheartedly into a late night idea to rewire, re-jig, and reinstall a lighting and music installation...

Huffing, puffing, and shuffling followed before she emerged again; this time fully clothed and in footwear eminently more suitable for electrical maintenance. The concept was there, ceilings, walls, floor... But, was there something missing?

Narrowing her gaze she reached out and tweaked one of the bulbs, settling the flickering light into a more pleasing rhythm, along with the others.

"There." The low growl of her voice, silk rippling over shards of slate belied her appearance for many who heard it. "That's better." Clapping her hands together, the room was ready, the gathered could come.

It's been a while! Not that long since Twisted, but since logging into SL for more than a few moments - not specifically for events such as the Fantasy Faire or Twisted - it feels like years. While I'm feeling all sad and blue today at the loss of what had been my own tight knit community, I'm taking heart from another I stumbled across. A group of people coming together, as I've witnessed time and again in SL, to help out and support someone they care about.
For the love of the Devil is a shopping event where 100+ designers have come together as one to help a fellow SL resident: Andrea Damone (Devil Damone) 100% of the proceeds go directly to her to help support her during a difficult time.
Please take a look - there is so much great stuff!

Information about the event from the Facebook page:
This year, in May and June a friend of many in Secondlife, Andrea Damone (Devil Damone) went in for what should have been a very routine surgery. But things did not go to plan, and Andrea spent many weeks in an induced coma fighting for her life. We are blessed that she has fought her way back and although her recovery continues, she is home and getting stronger by the week. Unfortunately the cost of keeping Andrea with us has fallen on her greatly. She has many expenses and bills resulting from this ordeal that she has to now face, while continuing to maintain her determination and fighting spirit through physical and emotional therapy.
Andrea had no idea of our plans, but many of her friends have wanted to do something to help. It's hard in Secondlife to offer support, when often we are so far away from a friendly hug, or a knock on the door with offerings of support. We decided, what we can do is try to help her with the burden of these expenses the only way we can.
